Psychological Counseling Service

At Swinburne Vietnam, we not only focus on academic success but also place great importance on students’ mental and emotional well-being. We believe that strong mental health, positive emotions, and meaningful relationships are essential for building a life that is not only successful but also fulfilling. That’s why we are always here to support you with services and activities that help you create a balanced, meaningful, and happy life.

The PERMA Model: A Key to Lasting Happiness

At Swinburne, we apply the PERMA model, a scientific approach to nurturing mental health and positive emotions. PERMA stands for five core elements, each playing an important role in creating a flourishing life:

• Positive Emotions: Experiencing joy, gratitude, and hope daily forms the foundation of mental well-being.
• Engagement: Fully immersing yourself in meaningful activities that bring “flow” helps you feel energized and motivated.
• Relationships: Positive connections provide love, support, and respect, building a sense of safety and happiness.
• Meaning: Living with a greater purpose and finding value in what you do adds depth and fulfillment to life.
• Accomplishment: Every small step toward your goals fosters pride, success, and motivation to achieve more.
